                        SUBJECT       :  Espinosa Allegations

                             1.  Sensitivity:  Regardless of accuracy, they

                                 A.  present a problem because of their having been
                                 presented to other government agencies;

                                 B.  in view of matters touching on U.S. security,
                                 are delicate and could have unfavorable repercassions
                                 it repeated to newswen by the complainant or his
                                 associates (whose independent, previous threats were
                                 of greater potential embarrassment);

                                 C.  affect the re utations and the security of our
                                 personnel at        and

                             2.  Action:  In view of the foregoing, the allegations

                                 A.  should be put in proper perspective - i.e., not
                                 ignored because of the potential embarrassment but
                                 considered in the light of what we already know
                                 (Almost all of them are repetitions of previous
                                 chatges a.  reports, known well to both the
                                 and Paris stations and to Headquarters officers
                                 concerned with the ALASH  group, whose members'
                                 reliability, reputations and good faith are question-
                                 able.  Two of the charges - about [I   and Tota
                                 and about AMWHIP-1 and CARRILLO - are new.);

                                 B.  should be treated so as to protect us against any
                                 charge of laxity and so as to establish the facts but,
                                 at the same time, treated so as to avoid atributing
                                 to them more importance than they deserve;

                                 C.  should be kept In mind as examples of other
                                 charges which may be bndied about and reported by the
                                 AMASH  group to other governmental agencies or to
                                 other governments or to news media (In the last
                                 connection recall the implied threat of publishing
                                 ODYOKE responsibility, as reported previously by
                                      871CIN  38634.);
